Answer: CoBr3 < K2SO4 < NH4 Cl
Justification:
1) The depression of the freezing point of a solution is a colligative property, which means that it depends on the number of particles of solute dissolved.
2) The formula for the depression of freezing point is:
ΔTf = i * Kf * m
Where i is the van't Hoof factor which accounts for the dissociation of the solute.
Kf is the freezing molal constant and only depends on the solvent
m is the molality (molal concentration).
3) Since, you are assuming equal concentrations and complete dissociation of the given solutes, the solute with more ions in the molecular formula will result in the solution with higher depression of the freezing point (lower freezing point).
4) These are the dissociations of the given solutes:
a) NH4 Cl (s) --> NH4(+)(aq) + Cl(-) (aq) => 1 mol --> 2 moles
b) Co Br3 (s) --> Co(3+) (aq) + 3Br(-)(aq) => 1 mol --> 4 moles
c) K2SO4 (s) --> 2K(+) (aq) + SO4 (2-) (aq) => 1 mol --> 3 moles
5) So, the rank of solutions by their freezing points is:
CoBr3 < K2SO4 < NH4 Cl
Probably Sulfur, low mp and hardness compared to the other metals
Answer: C... Because Zinc is made of only one type of atoms.
Explanation: All elements are made of one type of atom. Pure gold is made out of only gold atoms, silver out of only silver atoms, etc.
Answer: On heating, Magnesium forms its oxide; while potassium manganate(VII) decomposes
Explanation:
Magnesium Mg, on heating forms Magnesium oxide
2Mg(s) + O2(g) --> 2MgO
Potassium permanganate KMnO4, on heating decomposes to potassium manganate K2MnO4, manganese dioxide MnO2, and Oxygen gas O2.
2KMnO4 --> K2MnO4 + MnO2 + O2
The difference in observation is that, on heating, Magnesium forms its OXIDE as product; while potassium manganate(VII) decomposes, giving OFF most of its constituents and reducing its weight.
